A null-terminated character string, or NTBS, is a character sequence, that consists of nonzero elements, except the last element (the terminating null-character), which has the value zero.

A null-terminated multibyte character string, or NTMBS, is a null-terminated character string, that consists of valid multibyte characters. The string must begin and end with the shift state. A multibyte character string is compatible with regular character strings, that is, can be processed using the same facilities, except for the length calculation.

This section is incomplete Reason: explain shift state
